Colloids are a type of mixture consisting of particles suspended in a medium, such as a liquid or gas. These particles range in size from 1 nanometer to 1 micrometer and can be solid, liquid, or gas. Colloids exhibit unique properties due to the interaction between the particles and the medium, such as Brownian motion and stable dispersion. Research in colloids involves studying the behavior, properties, and applications of colloidal systems. This includes investigating how colloids interact with each other, their stability, aggregation, and dispersion properties. Colloid research also explores the various applications of colloids in materials science, pharmaceuticals, food science, and environmental engineering. Overall, research in colloids aims to better understand and manipulate the behavior of colloidal systems for various industrial and scientific applications.
